Neurofeedback |

"EEG neurofeedback" or "EEG biofeedback" are names given to a relatively new discipline that has proven effective for many who have suffered traumatic brain injuries. This is a high-tech variant of the ancient practice of meditation and the use of focused mental energies. Sensors attached to a person's skull are capable of monitoring brain waves and the changes in them. The signals are digitized and transmitted to a personal computer, where the data are recorded and both video and audio feedback can be generated. For example, a person can control the images on a computer monitor simply by thinking about them. Many who have received such training have seen notable improvements in memory, in executive functioning, in speech, and in general cognitive development. Listed below are a few introductions to the field, including anecdotal success stories.
